Triangles (LIT. DED.)

Ah, high school. A place of learning, friendship, and desperation. When friends fall for friends who fall for other friends, people deal with their sadness and desperation in many different ways.
In this RP, create a high school character, and as the story progresses characters will fall for other characters but they will not always fall for each other. PLEASE BE DIVERSE.
Two character MAX per writer. Give informaion about your character(s) but keep some secrets so the RP is interesting.
Normal rules apply.

Name: Ailith (nicknamed Ail or Six, depending on how close you are to her).

Age: 15, acts like a little kid but is in fact very serious.

Personality: constantly afraid. Ailith doesn't like to talk, just to constantly hold onto someone. Without the physical touch of a human being at all times, she begins to have severe panic attacks. Having be left alone at home for months at a time when she was in kindergarten, she has extreme separation anxiety and does not like to take care of herself. If someone's around to help her, she jumps for the opportunity. Unfortunately, she finds it difficult to make friends due to her multiple personalities. Her emotions snap often and certain words (eg: coat, drink, whiskers) set her off from buried memories she will never share. There's a slight possibility that when she was young her dad may have...did things to her. She can almost always be found holding onto a person, hiding in small spaces, or ripping things apart.

Appearance: Ailith has a series of tight plastic bands on her wrist to cover rope burns from her childhood. She loves to wear a giant hoody that goes down to her knees that her uncle gave her, before he joined the army. Very skinny due to the lack of motivation to eat. Her skin is transparent, you can see little veins and dark bruises on her arms since she's always bumping into things that are taller that her. She's short, about 5'1 and not the smartest. She wears a long pair of sweatpants and a tight tanktop tucked in. Her hair has one long black streak on the bottom, but other than that it is thick and blonde. It resembles of ball of fur, since she doesn't bother to brush it (she wears her hood to cover it. The hoody has a long broken zipper down the middle and is covered in stains. Her backpack, which she sometimes caries, has a frayed tear on the side that only small objects could slide through.

A little more info: Her name means six because she was the sixth attempt to have a child her parents had. The five before had been miscarriages. Her family has been gone for about two months now, but nobody knows. They're off on some business trip. Oh, and that's another word. Trip.

((I've used this character before, I just touched up a bit of it so sorry if you've read this one before. There's just certain characters I really like that I use :D ))

Appearance: Her hair is dark brown and semi curly, it hangs down in a long pixie cut that falls a bit over eye brows, brushes her ears and goes a bit lower than the naps of her neck. She usually has it tucked back under a navy blue military cap that has a black leather strap around the rim. It's obviously an old hat, slightly faded and the leather is well worn.
Rays is a slight figure, she short and small, but is matured physically. She has a very slight figure with narrow shoulders and is rather thin. She is lightly muscled though and is strong for her size. She has very light brown skin that's lighter than her hair, her skin is striped with scars, some more noticeable than others, a lot are on her wrist and ankles.
Her eyes are a very dark brown with a hint of green in them. They are slightly almond shaped and have a sad look in them and an angry, dangerous look in them too. She has normal facial features for her race which is Slavic and Scandinavian.
Rays normally wears dark blue carpenter overalls that aren't the jean material, but are the workman's jump suits material, the overalls are old and slightly faded, especially around the knees where it's getting thread bare, plus the cuffs are frayed. She has a plain dark gray t-shirt with a rip in the collar to make it a v-neck and frayed sleeves. She has a black leather jacket that used to have sliver zippers along time ago, but the zippers on the pockets were ripped off in a fight along time ago and the zipper that zips the coat up is so tarnished you can't tell what color it used to be. The leather is well worn and faded because she rarely takes it off and it's a little cracked from being used all the time. Her shoes are a set of black beat up, slightly oversized sneakers that look pretty old.

Personality: Rays is a tomboy, a tough girl with a will iron. She hates being controlled and very feisty. She hates looking weak and so she refuses to show when she's hurt or upset. She bottles things up make sure no one knows and hides anything except her tough anger. She was raised in a bad situation so she doesn't really know love is, she's only close to her best friend Ailith, who's also the only person allowed to touch her. She gets angry easily with anyone but her friend and her anger never ends well, it usually ends in someone getting hurt and her freaking out because she deep down thinks she's a monster and that no one cares about. She's afraid to turn into a person who just hurts others, she doesn't want to be like that and is very hard on herself. She's extremely loyal to her friend though and as kind as she knows how to be, though she struggles to show kindness in the right way.

Bio: She grew up in an extremely rough neighborhood and doesn't talk much about her home life with anyone and keep things close to her chest. She lives in a poor home and doesn't have a lot of money. Rays spends a lot of time on the streets and has even spent time in juvie here and there for disturbing the peace, public fighting, and vandalism. Rays doesn't seem to have a good roll model in her life and though she's trying to get a real job she's considering joining an underground fighting ring to get money because it's the only thing she thinks she's good at, which she hates, but she needs more money or thinsg will just get worse for her.

Appearance: Darius is your stereotypical highschool jock. His body has a muscular tone, and his skin has just the right sun kissed glow. His smile seems to glisten, and his eyes are a deep chocolatey brown. His ears and nose are slightly too big for his face, but he makes up for that in personality. He is around six foot one in height. He usually wears Adidas flip flops, ripped jeans, and a blue button down plaid shirt.

Personality: Darius has a very charming personality. He can sometimes be a little too up front, and has been known to make vulgar comments. He has had a rough home life, and was often beat by his dad. Because of this he is often gruff. It takes a while to earn his trust.

Name: Kristina Carlisle Age: 15 Appearance: Kristina has wavy golden-brown hair that ends at her sholders. Her eys are deep blue. She is on the short side, standing at 5'4" Personality: Kristina is the new kid and has very few friends at her new school, but hopes to make some soon. She has an outgoing personality and hopes to make the cheerleading squad. Her grades are average, mostly B's and C's. No one knows much about her.
((Oh, I will not be on from July 7-12, but I can make my character strangely disappear and catch up when I come home from camp))

Appearance: He's average height about 5'10" with dark red hair that's been buzz cut so short it;s only like red fuzz. He's dark blue eyes that look intently at people, always seeming curious about something. He's got a good body shape, though he doesn't have serious muscles. He dresses nicely everyday without fail, making a big impression when he's not at school.

Personality: Alexander prides himself in being the "ladies man". He uses his smooth talking skills to charm the most unlikely women which can sometimes get him into trouble. He also uses his age and good looks to his advantage.

Bio: What he lacks at home he makes up for in school. His father works everyday until late hours in the night to provide for Alexander who continuously takes advantage of the poor old man. His mother left long ago, and with no authority figure he's practically raised himself. He knows no boundaries and has no rules.
